This sweet lady is Miss Pecan! Pecan is a walking ray of sunshine with a big ol' smile on her face! She came to us as a stray and was never reclaimed by her previous family.Pecan is a higher energy girl that loves to play hard and love even harder. She does great in the fenced yard out back and seems to have a decent recall. She keeps a clean kennel through the day and is interested in making doggie friends. She did well during her cat-test but will still need slower introductions to the other furry household members.Pecan is as sweet as pie! Meet her and find out for yourself why we love this girl so much!**Spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention. Weighs about 67lbs**

Story
Hello, friends. My name’s Bodhi, and I’m a wise old soul in search of a soft place to call my own. I recently found myself here at FDHS after my family couldn’t keep me, and I’m hoping to find my way to a warm, loving home soon. I’m a gentle and sweet senior boy who just wants to be close to my people—I get anxious when I’m left alone too long, so I’d be happiest in a home where someone can keep me company.The staff here is still getting to know all my little quirks and charms, but they can already tell I have a lot of love to give. The kennel environment is a bit tough for a guy like me, so I’m really hoping to find a foster or foster-to-adopt home right away. If you’re looking for a calm and loyal friend to share quiet days with, I’d love to meet you. Let’s make this my new beginning!**Neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention. Weighs 55 lbs**

Story
Meet Miss Maggie, a gentle two-year-old girl with a heart that's slowly learning to trust. When she first arrived, Maggie was terrified. She wouldn't make eye contact, trembled when she tried to pet her, and hid under the office desk, unsure of the world around her. Her past has left some scars- she wasn't treated kindly by the humans who were supposed to love her. But even after being let down, Maggie still has so much love to give. Thankfully, Maggie didn't spend long at our facility before a wonderful foster stepped up and welcomed her into their home. And it didn't take long for the real Maggie to shine through! Within an hour, we received videos of her playing, being silly, and feeling relaxed with the other dog in the home. This is who Maggie really is- sweet, playful and full of joy when she feels safe. Maggie is looking for a forever home where she can continue to blossom, with people who will shower her with the love and kindness she deserves. If you have room in your heart for a timid but beautiful soul ready to embrace her second chance, Maggie could be the perfect addition to your family. Let's help her write the next chapter in her story- one filled with happiness and love!
